Authority is three-way and stated rather than held by one repo: policy-nexus
owns the surface, the-custodian owns what counts as canon and when it is
ratified, railiance-platform owns the substrate. The middle one is the guard
against the real hazard here - a repo that reads every other repo is one step
from becoming the place where "what is current" is decided, and this says
plainly that it renders that judgement rather than making it.
The tell that the split is right is that T01 and T04 need different
competences. T01 asks what supersession means and what a permanent URL
promises; T04 is DNS and ingress. One owner would be weak at one of them.
T06 withdrawn. Regulatory intake is risk work, not publishing work, and it
wanted a different owner and a different skill from everything else in this
workplan. risk-nexus publishes through here, arriving as another manifest
source rather than as a second content type this repo curates.
The consequence is the point: this repo now does one thing, which is what made
its ownership answerable.
Domain corrected from government, a leftover from when this looked like a civic
policy site.
